My wife and I enjoyed a nice dinner on a Monday night. Very few patrons, but maybe that was because it was Monday. Lots of interesting things to choose from. We had several of the Tapas selections - octopus, sausage, scallops, empanadas and puff mushrooms - and then split the flank steak. All were very good. We will go back.

I go here often, but this past time was a disappointment. The waiter I was assigned had all of his tables on the other side of the restaurant, and I was the only one in my section assigned to him. While everyone around me received excellent service, I kept having to ask for my server, order from other servers, etc. The octopus appetizer was wonderful, as usual. I ordered the flank steak as my entree, same as what I ordered on my previous visit. This time, the steak was tough and chewy. I didn't eat all of it. The waiter took 15 minutes to get my credit card back to me so I could leave. The meal that should have taken an hour ended up taking 1.5 hours due to the slow service.

Great food and atmosphere. Dinner was at 6:30 and the evening crowd for a Friday night didn’t seem to roll in until about 7:30. We were one of only 2 tables seated at 6:30. Though the food and atmosphere was great, the music was very loud. Even with nobody seated near us it was hard to carry on a conversation. That said, our party was composed of people in their 50s and 60s. It could be that you cater to a younger crowd. :)

It was a last minute choice - the Valentine's Prix Fixe dinner exceeded all expectations. We especially enjoyed the drunken clams and mussels and the Paella but the salad was also well done and the passion fruit cheesecake quite special. From the minute we walked in, the staff was attentive, checked on us regularly but was not intrusive. We loved the special occasion there and plan to visit again. We had enough saffron rice from the paella that we took it home and it reheated beautifully as a side dish for the next day's lunch.

First visit my husband and I had a great experience with excellent and tasty food. Several months later brought 3 friends there and after bragging about their food, the opposite reaction. Burgers were dry, appetizers not as tasty or well prepared as before. Different cook? We did happen there on an entertainment night, that was best part. Not sure if we will go back.

This was our first time dining at Barcelona. The ambiance and menu and wine list are excellent, so expectations of the food are high at the beginning of the meal. With most restaurants these days, we recalibrate our service expectations because of the server shortage but despite being a little short handed, our server was hustling to keep pace and was cordial and polite throughout the meal. The huge disappointment was with the kitchen. We also expected slower service times as well but literally every piece of seafood was overcooked, except a couple of scallops in one of the appetizers. The rice and red pepper slices were the only moist things in the entire Paella pan. I can overlook many service issues with a restaurant but at the end of the day, they stay in business by consistently serving up properly prepared food.
